The heist.

I’m spending my Sunday morning engrossed in the most recent issue of Vanity Fair.   Besides the aggravating features on “Hollywood’s fresh faces of 2010″, some of whom have graced the cover of this annual publication in years past, most of whom are younger than me and all of whom make significantly more than I do, I find myself fascinated by “The Suspects Wore Louboutins”.  The piece is based on the American teens who stand accused of burglarizing the homes of Orlando Bloom, Paris Hilton, and Lindsay Lohan among others.  One of the accused, Alexis Neiers, is featured prominently in the piece.  Below, Neiers is photographed just days after her arraignment for being an alleged member of what is now being dubbed “The Bling Ring”.

I really wonder about this girl’s handlers.  What’s the motivation behind allowing their client to be featured in this story?  The above image is certainly not one that elicits much sympathy on her behalf.

All in, the six individuals charged in the case are believed to have stolen upwards of $3 million in clothing and jewelry from the aforementioned stars.  As for the motivation behind the crimes, the accused are said to have been obsessed with the stars’ lavish possessions and relied on television shows such as TMZ to establish which stars were out of town and until when.

Whether Neiers is, as she claims, just a girl implicated in something that was beyond her control is for the courts to decide.  At the very least it seems that these crimes required a great deal of premeditation and were executed with care.  Regardless of the outcome, I look forward to following the impending trials of those who stand accused of one of the most audacious burglaries in recent Hollywood history.

Tucker Max's History of Feminism Thesis-Antithesis-Synthesis

When any pendulum swings too far to one side, it eventually has to start coming back. The first major player to refuse to buckle to this trend was Howard Stern. The demand for such a voice was so strong that by simply refusing to kowtow to the PC police, he became the “King of All Media.” This is where fratire comes in. While Maddox and I are not Howard Stern, we do represent some of the first internet players in this anti-PC revolt, and fratire as a genre represents the non-mainstream literary reaction to the feminization of masculinity.

Masculinity is starting to slowly coming back in vogue, but the fight is only beginning. The fact is, at this point in entertainment history, the Second Wave feminists are the gatekeepers of media. The women who grew up in the 60’s are now in charge, and they quite literally run shit. By itself that is not a problem, but these 50-year-old women who hold so many positions of power in media companies have personal preferences that do not reflect many American attitudes. Fratire exists as a genre because people are hungry for someone to tell it like it actually is instead of how these women (and men to some extent) want it to be. There is a large and untapped segment of the American populace that want men to act like men, but the MSM, which is run by Second Wave feminists, doesn’t get this yet. They aren’t in touch anymore.

So there is a history lesson from the horse’s mouth. You have the liberal feminists of the first wave fighting for basic liberal rights. The early 2nd wave extends this “good” trend into the social sphere, but these radical Jacobins go to far. And so there is the 3rd wave liberal restoration. Catherine McKinnon and Andrea Dworkin meet their Waterloo in the feminist sex wars, and Louis XVIII is put back on the thrown. But he is willing to grant a constitution that grants most of the rights of 1789, but not 1793.

http://www.wikipediaondvd.com/wp-0.5/img/c/l/l.jpg

This is the path of Crane Brinton’s Anatomy of Revolution which notes how the revolutions followed a life-cycle from the Old Order to a moderate regime to a radical regime, to Thermidorian reaction.

So the Restoration has already been taken back. We are beyond Thermidor. In this framework Roissy and Co. who want to undo even the early “good” days of 2WF and some even 1WF, are the ultra-monarchists, even more monarchical than the king himself.

So you see the history, written by the victors.

Thesis: 1st wave

Antithesis: 2nd wave

Synthesis: 3rd wave

So now we have the new thesis. Tucker-Max/ Paris Hilton 3rd wave feminism. Stripper pole-dance feminism. Empowering differences. Choice and individualism.

So what will be the next antithesis to our current thesis? Well sexual debauchery as Roissyites hope lead to an alpha cavemen sexual monopoly that leads to a counterrevolution that completely annihilates the last remnants of 2WF? Or will there be a second revolution of the radicals against the Restoration?

We are living in the Menaissance Restoration. History can not be reversed. And so some of 2wf is preserved but in an anti-2wf manner. This is the way in which the 1815 Constitution of France preserved 1789 in an anti-1789 manner.

France finally achieved the goals of 1789 in 1830, with a new liberal monarch. And in 1848, an attempt was made to restore 1793.

The Stuart Restoration in England had a different fate. With the fall of the Cromwellian Puritan Republic, a new era of bowdyness with the Rake as the hero was reigned in. The Glorious Revolution, restored the goals of the early English Revolution, but the Puritan Republic was defeated for good. Or was it?

Third wave stripper feminism is anti-feminism under the banner of feminism.

Do you think the counterreaction against feminism will go all the way and undo ALL the gains of 2WF?

No. In that sense we are at the high tide of Restoration. All aspects of feminism that still can be destroyed have already been destroyed. The formal legal equality can not be reversed. The influx of women into the workplace can not be reversed.

Are things going to get better or worse?

The reaction has left economic gains untouched. If anything that march has gone on in spite of social backlash. In that sense the Third Estate of both England and France continued their economic march to supremacy, in the face of Feudal Restoration.

Feminism is the extension of the capitalist market relations into the field of sexuality. Like the English, American and French revolutions, the feminist revolution is in essence a liberal capitalist revolution. But like those revolutions, a radical social side emerged that took lofty ideas more seriously than the liberals did. And like in those 3, the radicals were ultimately defeated, in an alliance that pushed the early liberals, the conservatives and reactionaries together.

In that sense the alphas are supposedly the best competitors in the sexual free-market opened by feminism, and thus monopolize and drive out all “beta” competitors. Alpha sexual entrepreneurs supposedly provide the best service to consumers which is power dominance. Tucker Max is happy with the status quo, for the most part. While the Roissyites want to abolish the sexual free-market, although it supposedly benefits them as alphas, out of a sense of social responsibility. Of course the Roissyites as libertarians, have no real solution. There only hope is that women will be so humiliated and degraded, by Alphas that they will flee into the kitchen. But supposedly they enjoy the alphas?

In this the Christian Democrats who created a socially conservative welfare state, were the best antidote to feminism. They regulated the sexual market, and created economic incentives for the patriarchal single breadwinner home. But social conservatism in the USA is impotent because it is tied to economic libertarianism. US Libertarianism is second only to Nordic feminist social democracy, in forcing women into the market and thus greater economic independence.

In this the Stripper Restoration is no more a defeat for feminism, than the Stuart and Bourbon Restorations were defeats for capitalism. While many political and social gains have been wiped out, the marketization of sexual life and family continues unstopped.

In a world where women are little miss Ayn Rands, and no one owes anyone anything. Why should they fulfill their reproductive “duties”? Living in this libertarian society, if I were a woman, I would never bother to have kids, and if by some disaster I did, I would dump them off in adoption. There is nothing more anti-altruistic than being altruistic in an individualistic society. Unlike Christian Democratic Europe, libertarian USA will NEVER provide economic incentives for a woman to bother to have a family. And so as self-interested homo economicus they never will. What right does anyone have to complain about the end of the family?

Out the Box

Check out what other celebrities are up to!

Designer Alexander McQueen was found dead in his London home this morning.  There are reports that the famous designer took his own life.  He was found hanged in his apartment, and Sky News Media is reporting that local police have said the death would not be “treated as suspicious.”  An official cause of death has not been released.

Alexander McQueen is one of the world’s most famous designers, often designing for mega stars like Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Prince Charles.  Stephanie Pratt and Paris Hilton both recently wore an Alexander McQueen outfit that was so cute, celebrities didn’t mind being in a long list of celebs who wore also wore the dress.

A rep for McQueen says, “”At this stage it is inappropriate to comment on this tragic news beyond saying that we are devastated and are sharing a sense of shock and grief with [McQueen's] family.”

Thoughts go out to the McQueen family…

Poug in Paris

Gossip Center/SplashNews

Poug landed in La Paris Tuesday, February 9.  They stayed at the Ritz Carlton, visited pet stores and shopped for clothes until they dropped, of course.

The following day, the happy pair was spotted enjoying more Parisian life.  Wednesday, Paris and Doug both looked very good, almost rivaling Johotness and Olivia in the picture perfect pair department.

In other Poug news, the periodic marriage rumors have begun to swirl again, but this time Paris was the cause.  Giving an award acceptance speech at the Hearts for Hope benefit, Paris stated, “I’d like to thank my future sister-in-law Casey Reinhardt.”

Travails of the furry kind

Hindustan Times (February 6, 2010) by Ruchira Hoon

Like hotel heiress and socialite Paris Hilton, beauty-expert Michelle Janis couldn’t live without her pet pooch. The four-year-old pug went everywhere with her.

So, when she decided to take a long vacation to India from the UK, her heart wouldn’t let her leave wrinkle-faced Yoda behind. “I got him quarantined, signed him on for export and got a crate measured to his size. That was the easy bit,” she says. “What was hard was to find a place to stay. India is just not a pet-friendly country.”

Unlike several cities around the world, where pets such as dogs, cats and birds are welcomed into most malls, restaurants and shops, few five-star hotels in the country allow you to stay with your pet.

Allergies, disturbing the neighbours, hair shedding and well, just the image of the hotel, become an issue.

But that’s not to say you cannot travel with your furry friend. Anupama Vinayak, who runs the website petvacations.in, has a host of resorts and hotels that she has collaborated with to let pets participate in vacations.

“We have collaborations with two-star and three-star hotels as well as bungalows and service apartments across the country,” she says. On her site though, the names of most of these hotels are kept anonymous.

“Many people don’t feel comfortable about spending the night in a room where a dog or cat has slept in earlier. So, we tell the client only when we know they are serious about staying at the hotel.”

Checking out the pet policies is a great way of deciding where to stay. Marketing executive Siddharth Shah, for instance, located a perfect little heritage hotel in Jaipur to take his great Dane Toe-Toe to. “Pets need a break as well. A vacation with them is a great way to bond. Plus they are never ever bored of you.”

Delhi-based vet Dr Vikas Daga often advises his clients to prepare in advance before going on a vacation with their pets. “They are like babies. Don’t forget to pack in their food, toys and a first-aid kit as well as absorbent material, so that they don’t make a mess of themselves. Other than that, get ready to embark on a great vacation.”

The Fine Print:

  • Air India, Jet Airways, and Jet Lite allow pets on their flights
  • You can book yourself on a flight with your pet only three hours before a flight and not in advance
  • If you have a small-sized pet, check it in as excess baggage and not cargo. Make sure you have an IATA approved crate lined with absorbent cloth
  • Most pets need to be quarantined before they travel from or to India
  • Measuring the container is essential and has to be approved by the airlines
  • On long-haul flights a fleece/vet bed is recommended
  • Pets should not be sedated on a flight

Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.

Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.
– H L Mencken, A Book of Burlesques, “Sententiæ” (1920), quoted from The Columbia Dictionary of Quotations

There is only one honest impulse at the bottom of Puritanism, and that is the impulse to punish the man with a superior capacity for happiness — to bring him down to the miserable level of “good” men, i.e., of stupid, cowardly, and chronically unhappy men.
– H L Mencken, Alistair Cooke, ed, The Vintage Mencken, quoted from James A Haught, ed, 2000 Years of Disbelief

The truth is, as every one knows, that the great artists of the world are never Puritans, and seldom even ordinarily respectable. No virtuous man — that is, virtuous in the YMCA sense — has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading, and it is highly improbable that the thing has ever been done by a virtuous woman.
– H L Mencken, Prejudices, “The Blushful Mystery: Art and Sex” (First Series, 1919).
IS this the worst of all possible worlds? I’m an old Puritan in HL Mencken’s sense. I’m anti-fun, anti-having a good time. So just “enjoying myself” isn’t going to be a world out for me. I need a Milton to justify the ways of God to man. Do not mistake theodicy for religion, I’m an atheist. But in order to be able to speak, I must name God.

I’m at the bottom of the heap in this society. Would it be so much better to be a Roman slave, if I knew the master who beat me was a noble civic Republican? Are the young rape slaves of the Mongols, conciled by the fact that a tribal democratic cosmopolitan is being built? Do the murdered Helots rejoice that all Spartans are brothers? Is not this the best age to be a loser? It is true if I was a citizen in a past age it might be better, but thats an unequal comparison, since the losers of the past were slaves and serfs. If I’m destined to be a loser in all ages, is this not my golden age?

I assumed I was a world conqueror. Yeah this is a pretty crummy time to be a conqueror. Even if you are victorious you have done it for nothing. So perhaps it is the leaders who ought to be pitied. It is they who miss out on the glorious republican legacy. I would have just been their slave anyway.

Does not everyone believe they are uniquely destined? For me it took on truly grandiose terms. I told a Wiccan, that I was guided by the star of destiny- Fortuna.
“Ah the whore goddess” she replied.
I scoffed, I’m going places, people can see that in me, I insisted. I will fulfill the dream. The babe is resting his head suckling on his mother’s bosom. Her wind blows with the words. Maringo, Austerlitz, Jena. Fatherland.  That was the dream. Oh gentle Liberte, how I caressed you. What cruel insults I threw at your beautiful sisters, what is egalitie in chains? what is the fraternite of slaves? Such nonsense I spoke. Or beautiful virginal liberte, they have made you the painted whore- liberty!

My life is the story of two sisters. One who was right to betray me, the other who erred. Sophia, you were gentle and soft. Fortuna, ah you were the great seducer. How you drugged me! Oh the miraculous kingdoms you promised me. Or did you? Did I just delude myself? Did I speak for you old whore? Ah Sophia’s soft eyes. Do you remember that time, after those harlots confronted me after football practice. I was quite the Cato then. I’m sure I gave them a very noble reply, and they laughed. Oh those miles I ran after that. And in that lovely park, where I rested on the swings alone. I came running there. Exhausted and worn out, I ran harder, because you Sophia, were there with outstretched arms. I believe you Sophia. You could have given me all, and you asked for nothing. Oh Sophia, how I have failed you. What an ungrateful servant I was. How I lived by your sister.

It is my fault. All my fault. This hellish world is my creation. Evil could have been fought. It was my duty to have courage to fight their fire with fire. Coward! Wretch! You flinched! The butterfly effect. The mistakes of I, the insignificant worm, made a small ripple, that 1000 miles away became a great storm that would engulf the world. I’m too blame. Life is struggle. Good stood on one side, evil on the other. Those were the barricades. Yes this world is one ruled by evil. But only because that battle was lost. And I’m to blame.

What a strange, ugly, dull, boring world. Accursed! And I’m too blame. The whole weight of the world is on my back. I’m directly responsible for everything. Not a leaf falls, that I did not will.

Virtue in the mind alone, is no virtue. Virtue must be made into a fist to smash evil. I had my chance to do that. I was a miser not an investor.

The word talent used to be a unit of Greek currency. It is only because of Jesus’ parable that talent is only useful in the world, and not buried, that talent came to mean skill. Isn’t that my own story? Perhaps I did have virtue, but I buried it in the ground so it would not be stolen, I did not invest it so it would grow.

Who says I had to accept the values of the world? But even to fight for a better one, my honor had to be thrown into the wide world. Only then could it have been set right.

Teen burglars broke into Hilton’s home with key under mat

A member of teenage gang, that has been accused of robbing homes of Hollywood celebrities, revealed that they broke into the Paris Hilton’s home using a key she left under her door mat.

According to US ABC News, Nick Prugo, who is a part of the gang dubbed the “Bling Ring”, said that Hilton was their first target because they considered her “dumb”.

“Like, who would leave a door unlocked? Who would leave a lot of money lying around?” he said.

Prugo also claimed that they found five grams of cocaine in her house, which they also stole.

While talking to Good Morning America, Prugo said he got caught up in the robberies due to peer pressure.

“There was a definite thrill to it,” News.com.au quoted him as saying.

He added he was “just trying to keep my friends”.

However, despite Prugo’’s admissions to police and the public, he has pleaded not guilty.
